In a Crowd

In a Crowd

Ever feel invisible in the midst of a crowd of people, or lost in a world of your own imagination? Gives the mind pause to think how visible or invisible we can seem at times. When I was little I had recurring dreams of being invisible. Wonder if that's normal for shy children? I also dreamed that I could fly a lot. I'd go running and my feet were really springy, and then I'd bound up really high with each step.

I looked at our Art-a-Day blog stats this morning. We've been averaging about 150 page views per day. Pretty amazing! Keep it up everyone.

Mini portrait #10

Have you ever done a "clean your palette" painting? The paint that's left over after a painting session soon becomes applied in a varied and psychotic manner to the surface of the canvas. Hah, well that's about what happened here. After the last portrait I thought I would try a simpler angle and so worked from a black and white profile photo I found. Without the printed colors guiding or directing me, I had a bit of fun with it. Perhaps he needs to get together with the green and blue hair girl from a few posts back.
